On this day back in 1966, Bobby Fuller of the Bobby Fuller Four, known for his iconic tune “I Fought the Law”, was found dead in his car in LA at the young age of 23. Leaving this world so young like his idol and fellow Texan, Buddy Holly, Fuller’s death was declared a suicide, but rumors abound as to possible other causes. That aforementioned classic tune was later remade with a harder edge famously by the Clash.

Blending electronic beats with some choppy Latin funk, Black Eskimo (a duo comprised of Ingrid Chavez and Marco Valentin) chart their course in some pop-friendly waters. Chavez, noted especially for her spoken word material, opts to ditch the talk and simply sing.

It’s really just a taster of what is to come, as Eskimo are due for a full-length release. But if a sweet and tangier brand of electro-pop is your dish, then this should go down nicely like a chilled lemon posset. Check out their debut single, “Escapology”.
